Any clues? I managed to use my entire disk as the image, I wouldn't suggest this though, because if bochs screws up it might be bad. I think I did something like diskc: file=/dev/wd0c cyls=847 heads=64 spt=127 That's the geometry for my disk anyway, and I got bochs to start up the boot manage properly but it then whinges and exits with can't lseek file /dev/wd0c. I think it's probably possible, I just gave up as after 3 hours it still hadn't installed windows 95, and that's too slow for me. Steve. -- Steve Roome - Vision Interactive Ltd.
